I belong to FISTS, SKCC, QRPARC and others.  I have no problem with QSOing 
someone who doesn't have a "number" or isn't a member!  Some of the guys are 
strictly number collectors and some will try to have a 'rag chewing" type 
QSO with you.  I strictly leave it to the other guy, what ever is his 
"thing".  Have run into many interesting poeple with more conversation than 
RST, QTH and numbers though.

73,
